Answer: $68,200
Explanation:
Estimated inventory = Difference between Goods available for Sale at Retail Price and Actual Sales made * Cost Retail Ratio
Retail value of Goods Available for Sale
= Retail Price of Beginning Inventory + Retail price of Purchases
= 120,000 + 480,000
= $600,000
Difference between Goods available for Sale at Retail Price and Actual Sales made
= 600,000 - 490,000
= $110,000
Cost to retail price ratio
= (Cost of Beginning Inventory + Cost of Purchases) / (Retail Price of Beginning Inventory + Retail Price of Purchases)
= (60,000 + 312,000) / (120,000 + 480,000)
= 62%
Ending inventory
= 110,000 × 62%
= $68,200

The correct reason therefore, is:
It is a relatively easy method to apply.
